BRETT FINDLAY, 26. Born in Glastonbury. Looks and brains crossed between Andy Warhol and David Bowie. 3 years touring with psychedelic cult rockers 'Kula Shaker' as backing vocalist and percussionist. He is a sensual performer, eccentric and charismatic.

NICK HAGAN, 26, guitarist bent on cosmic acid and borderline madness. Inspired after a chance meeting with Jimmy Page at a petrol station on Xmas day... with the words "Keep rockin'!" Raised in Maidenhead, started playing guitar at 14 influenced by Salvador Dali, visions of cyberspace, Smashing Pumpkins, Led Zeppelin, Funkadelic & Prince.

LAWRENCE SANTI, 26, bass, the instrument of sonic destruction, less strings more wood. Lived in earshot of Deep Purple, Ozzie Ozbourne and Cheap Trick. Less talk and more walk, Lawrence speaks through his playing adding an incessant drive to the band.

RUSSELL GILBROOK, 29, Russell answered an advert in NME, walked straight in and scared the shit out of the other guys by attacking the drums and playing the tunes as if he'd been playing them all his life.
